Birthdays |
This week, we celebrate our gifts with the gift of sharing our gifts with each other. As I embark upon another trip around the sun, the only gift on my mind is sharing the love. With this in mind, I am launching my very special project to bring out the best in all of us. This idea has been on my mind for months and synchronicities brought it into the light. My birthday wish is no more disposable masks in public and I only want one present. From 15-30 September, I will donate all profits from NextGen smart masks to charity. Gift a mask to a homeless person and 100% of profits go to a local charity. Gift a mask to a friend (our yourself) and raise money for a local charity. Gift a set of masks plus 100% of profits to a local charity of your choice. Choose from one of these many lovely gifts and reflect our abundance. Put on a little music, light a candle and do your happy dance with me. My favorite thing about birthdays is that every one of us has one. Let's gather in our hearts and wrap our arms around our earth. Our celebration of unpredictable gifts to come begins now. How are you sharing your gifts today? Naturally,

On my morning walk down to the beach recently, I noticed a startling new trend in this quiet, remote, tiny fishing village – used surgical masks discarded into the river, ready to be swept into the sea with the next rain. With three rubbish bins within a one-minute walk, the senseless of this insensitive behavior left me incensed -- read more. |
Impact Hong Kong is are often asked how to help when you see a homeless person.

Hong Kong provides a critical part of the home range for the broader dolphin population, but local dolphin abundance here has dropped by over 80 per cent in the past 15 years, threatened by habitat loss and degradation, as well as dwindling fisheries, marine traffic and other human threats.
